Rep Power: 0 | | Investigate for possible former employer blacklisting Minneapolis, MN, New York, NY
I am in need of some advise from the people who knows law best. I have reasons to believe that I've been blacklisted. I will not get into details on it, but what would be the best way to uncover the issue?
I am thinking of getting some background check on myself to look at the reference comments but am having several difficulties:
- which company is accurate and will stand in the court of law?
- which company will entertain individual requests?
- would it make sense to even spend money on those, since its probably going to be undocumented?
Would that be the best course of action? Any suggestions?
Thanks so much for your time! |

Rep Power: 0 | | Re: Investigate for possible former employer blacklisting The clause likely was also motivated by the heat the Disney board took with respect to Michael Ovitz's employment agreement. Ovitz received a parachute payment of $140 million after a 14-month stint at Disney. Shareholders sued the board claiming, among other things, that it should have terminated Ovitz for cause thus avoiding the parachute payment. As discussed in an earlier post, the board prevailed in the litigation and settled the suit to avoid an appeal. | | Domain Names Sponsor | | |
